Wasabi Assigned Patent

Wasabi Technologies, Inc., Boston, MA, has been assigned a patent (10,497,393) developed by Flowers, Jeff, and Rees, Mark, Boston, MA, for “methods and systems for storing data sequentially on a media.“

The abstract of the patent published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office states: ”Systems and methods for storing data are provided herein using a data archive architecture controlled by a head server. The head server can write data in a contiguous manner across multiple storage devices by partitioning objects into multiple portions and spreading the portions across the multiple storage devices. Portions of a first object can be transmitted to a first subset of storage devices and portions of a second object can be transmitted to a second subset of storage devices. The first subset of storage devices can write the portions of the first object to a first write location indicated by a write pointer. The head server can increment the write pointer based on a length of the portions of the first object to a second write location. The second subset of storage devices can write the portions of the second object to the second write location.”

The patent application was filed on February 28, 2019 (16/288,339).
